Wolfman and Pérez's Run on Teen Titans Was Legendary

Created by Bob Haney and Bruno Premiani, the Teen Titans originally joined the DC Universe in the 1960s. However, it was Marv Wolfman and Pérez's 1980s take on the youthful superhero team that would become arguably the most defining. Written by Wolfman and illustrated by Pérez, New Teen Titans #1 was originally published by DC in 1980. For their run, Wolfman and Pérez created the now-iconic characters of Raven, Starfire and Cyborg, as well as re-defined the character of Garfield Logan/Beast Boy, re-christening him the Changeling. They also ultimately gave Dick Grayson/Robin his most famous alter ego of Nightwing as part of "The Judas Contract."

Wolfman and Pérez's New Teen Titans has served as the basis for numerous on-screen adaptations, including the Cartoon Network animated series Teen Titans, its comedy-oriented spinoff Teen Titans Go!, the animated feature film Teen Titans: The Judas Contract and the live-action DC Universe/HBO Max series Titans. Moreover, Pérez worked on numerous other iconic titles for both DC and Marvel, including Crisis on Infinite Earths, Wonder Woman and Avengers. Earlier this year, Pérez passed away at the age of 67 following a battle with pancreatic cancer.
